We had a great session of Basketball this week at Epping Forest Sportability Club. Ray started the session off with a warm up to wake us all up and get us ready for the session ahead. The kids then grabbed a basketball each to practice their skills. They started off with dribbling with the ball around the hall. First with one hand and then with both hands. They bounced along the lines of the school hall. Then they bounced their balls as high as they could while keeping control and then as low as they could. We then played a traffic lights game with Valentina running the game. If she held up a red cone then you had to stand still with the ball. Yellow and it was stand still and move the ball around your waist and green meant dribble around the hall. We then moved on to some shooting drills followed by some one on one games. This is where the coaches pair up two kids to compete against each other. On the word go they race to the far end of the hall where Ollie is waiting to throw the ball in to play. The object then is to be the first person to dribble the ball down the hall and shoot it in to the basket. Miss and the other person gets a go. After the main break we finished off the session with some games of Benchball, putting all that ball control work in to good practice. Initially there were three teams so we played some round robin games but towards the end of the session a couple of kids had to leave early so we reduced it to two teams. It was a great session and at the end the Star of the Week awards went to Alexander and Ellis. Very well done lads!
See you all again next week! Comments are closed.
